I'm still thinking about Jenny. If I tweeted, I would first tweet
this: When it comes to the classroom, if you pay attention, you just might
learn that the classroom is a very complicated place filled with very complex
individuals.
And, then, I'd send a second tweet: to paraphrase Fat Albert, if you
pay attention to each student, you just might learn something essential about
each of them. What you learn is that Ella Wheeler Wilcox was right: a weed is
only an unloved flower.
A final tweet would be: Learn, then, to focus first on humanity, not
on method or technology or information. It's loving attention that changes the
odds for all the tomorrows.
Make it a good day
